    Did something happen to penalties or a fluke?

    I started up an offline franchise preseason roster. Jacked up all penalties on sim and first drive playing against ravens 4 straight holding penalties through 2 quarters 12 holding penalties between both teams.

    You would have to play a few more games but I've played around half a dozen since the patch and probably average around 8 penalties per game total.The range being 4-12 so I would tend to think hitting 12 isn't a regular occurrence.If I nerfed roughing the passer I would probably average a couple less per game.

      I haven’t played enough but saw around 6-7 penalties on default penalty sliders. I usually got 3-4 before the update. And some of these were illegal block, ineligible receiver, pass interference. I would get some rare pass interference but it was usually only holding, false start, and roughing the passer. Before I would get some rare pass interference calls but don’t recall seeing ineligible receiver or illegal block at all. I don’t care for high penalties but this was a welcoming sight.

        I'm getting 2 or 3 penalties a game with it set at default. I've played several games.

          I feel like more penalties are being called after the latest patch.

            I'm still seeing around 1-3 penalties per game with my penalties all turned up with Holding, DPI, and other at 95 or 99. Have played around 20-25 games since the last patch at this point. To be fair, though, I play on Competitive now and not Simulation, so if anything has changed, then that may be a part of why I am not seeing it.

              All my penalties are on and range from 40 to 45 and holding 50. Ive been seeing 2 - 4 per game. Before it was 0 - 2. IDK if its patch related, but its nice to see a few more.

              Madden get rid of the extras (SS/XF, HFA, media, scenarios, game plan) or turn them down considerably.

                  I'm curious... what skill level are you guys using.

                  It would be interesting to see if you're seeing higher penalties on AM vs rookie level.

                    I've played mostly on all Madden with most of the penalties bumped up to 95. The only penalties I've seen called consistently are false start and roughing the passer. Those are also the only penalties that seem to act based on your slider setting. Every other penalty seems like a completely random occurrence and I'll go games without seeing the penalty. EA states penalties are based off of actual stats but also say penalties aren't fun. If I turn the holding slider to 95 I should get that penalty at an unrealistic number and that does not happen. I'll go many games without seeing holding. Some penalties almost seem better at the default value. Penalties and playcalling need some serious tweaking before EA can call Madden simulation football.

                      The only way you see holding often is when you set your blocking to aggressive but you can't balance that out by setting the cpu to that which really sucks.It would be nice to have a tab for each team that you could set outside of the game in team settings.
